Theatreland by fishers

Theatreland

A change of location for today's shot. A couple of days ago I travelled to London on an East Coast train service, then made my way to Marylebone Station for a Chiltern Trains service to High Wycombe to stay with Louise for a few days.

The journey between stations in London gives me chance to explore different places and try different routes.

This walk took me through theatreland, and I was amused to find a theatre advertising 'Singing in the Rain' - very appropriate, because by the time I passed there the rain was quite heavy!

Welcome to London, some would say nearly as much history as York!! Ironic re rain.

Thank you Hazel, we are having a great time - but both my grandchildren move so fast that it's hard to catch them in a photo!

@pyrrhula

Thank you Pyrrhula - sadly neither my singing or dancing is very good, so I took pity on London and didn't inflict my very limited ability on the locals!
